FOR THE CHILDREN
SUMMER. The months we used to read of Have come to ,us again, With sunniness and sunniness, And rare delights of rain: The lark is up, and says aloud, East and wes' I see no cloud.
The lanes are full of roses, The fields are grassy deep; The leanness and floweriness Make one abundant heap; The balmy, blossom-breathing airs Smell of future plums and pears.
The sunshine at our waking Is still found smiling by; With beamingness and earnestness, Like some beloved eye; And ail the day it seems to take Delight in being wide awake. —Leigh Hunt.
(By "Pater Pan.")
